There was a hugely controversial moment in Estadio La Cartuja as Steve Clarke's men were denied a goal.
Scotland star Scott McTominay's goal WAS chopped off for offside but referee Serdar Gozubuyuk made an error in signalling that it had ben ruled out for a foul, according to a report.
Initially the message that filtered through from UEFA was that it was for a foul by Jack Hendry on Spain keeper Unai Simon only for the reason to then apparently change to the Scotland stopper being offside. There was real anger in the Scotland camp over the decision and now The Scottish Sun have quoted an insider at European football's governing body, saying: "The referee’s decision at the free-kick was for offside.
Meanwhile, former Scots referee Bobby Madden said: "A lot of people saying the referee wouldn't have gone to the monitor for offside. That's incorrect. For actual offsides there is no need, but as Hendry doesn't play the ball it is a subjective 'did he interfere with an opponent' so an on field opponent would have been required.
